We Don’t Do Industry Standard Solutions

We Don’t Do Industry Standard Solutions

Let’s get one thing straight right off the bat: Industry Standard Solutions are like a one-size-fits-all suit. Great in theory, but in reality, they never quite fit right. Sure, they’re designed for your industry, tested by businesses like yours, and probably work… kind of. But we don’t do kind of...

So, what’s the deal with our approach? We don’t do “Industry Standard Solutions.” No generic, off-the-shelf software from us. And here’s why.

Hi, I’m Jeremy – The Software Guy You’ll Actually Enjoy Talking To

You can check out my LinkedIn for the official credentials, but here’s the quick version: I’ve been in software development for 25+ years, working with some of the biggest names in corporate IT.

In AlphaFirst, my own business, we’ve helped over 270 clients and supported thousands of users with custom-built software and cloud apps.

And here’s what I’ve learned: Industry Standard Solutions are fine… if you want to run your business exactly like your competitors.

But if you’re the kind of business that actually wants an edge? Keep reading.

Industry Standard Solutions: The “Meh” of Business Software

These are typically cloud-based software packages designed for businesses in your industry. Pre-built. Tested. Used by many. The pitch? “Why reinvent the wheel?”

But here’s the problem: if you’re using the same Industry Standard Solutions as your competitors, you’re playing by their rules.

Think about it – if they implemented it first, they’re ahead. If they’ve been using it longer, they know it better. You’re stuck in a game of catch-up rather than breaking ahead of the pack.

Why We Don’t Sell Industry Standard Solutions

Because your business is unique. The way you operate, the processes you’ve fine-tuned over the years, the very thing that makes your company stand out – it all gets shoved aside the second you install a one-size-fits-all solution.

That’s why we build custom software that actually works for you.

  • We analyse your current processes – what’s working, what’s holding you back.
  • We design a solution that matches the way your business operates, not your competitors.
  • We make sure your software doesn’t just fit – you thrive with it.

It’s not just about keeping things running smoothly. It’s about making you better, faster, and more efficient.

But Isn’t Custom Software Crazy Expensive?

Here’s the thing: custom doesn’t have to mean crazy prices.

We’ve got a secret weapon: appDB, our unique development platform that speeds up the process and slashes costs. So no, custom software doesn’t have to break the bank.

Imagine this: we can have a prototype in your hands in under a day. Yes, you read that right – one day. And within four weeks, you could be working with a functional solution.

Custom software that fits your business. Not your competitors. Yours.

And if you’re willing to work with us to fine-tune it, you’ll have a tailored system faster than you’d get an off-the-shelf solution set up properly.

We’ll Be With You Every Step of the Way

Here’s the promise we make: you’re not in this alone.

We’ll learn about your business, meet your team, and make sure that the software we build doesn’t just fit your needs – it makes you better. We’ll take what’s already working well and turn it into something exceptional.

So, if you’re ready to stop blending in and start standing out, we’re here for it.
